About Taco

Meet Taco, a unique tri-pod cat with a heart of gold! At 8 years old, this spayed female Domestic Shorthair is looking for a loving home after she was surrendered due to a family member’s allergies. Taco has had one of her back legs amputated, but she has adapted remarkably well and navigates her surroundings like a pro. You’ll notice right away that Taco’s three legs give her a distinctive charm, but for her safety, she needs to be kept strictly indoors. Outdoor adventures aren’t suitable for her since she can't run or defend herself effectively. Taco enjoys a peaceful environment; while she has lived with other animals, she would thrive as the only pet. However, she’s great with kids! Taco is up to date on her vaccinations, microchipped, and house trained. She has faced hardships but is ready to find a new home where she can live peacefully and receive the love she deserves. What are you waiting for? Come meet Taco today!
